Cruz Goes Up With Palin Ad

By Sean Sullivan

"Tortured and imprisoned by a Cuban dictator, Ted Cruz's father fought back, escaping to America," says the narrator of the ad. "Ted successfully fought the United Nations, defending Texas's right to execute an illegal alien for murdering two teenage girls."
Next Tuesday's primary is a test of whether Dewhurst can get more than 50 percent of the vote and avoid a July runoff. But with Cruz gaining momentum and a third candidate -- former Dallas Mayor Tom Leppert -- spending big on TV ads of his own, that proposition is in serious doubt.
